Apparently this rule is not enforced or applicable to all equitably. There have been 6-8 cars left on Orchard Street all day today with not one ticketed or towed per the town orders as stated above even with notification, all parked there by gas station employees in Cos Cob. Orchard was deemed one of the few snow emergency streets in this area. Discouraging to residents that the town trucks can't get through to make the streets safe in the event of an emergency.
